1. 
   Lariat as scarf

   Wear it like a scarf! This open-ended lariat necklace is made of crocheted silver wire with red jasper and amethyst stones. Grasp the necklace somewhere near the middle and make a doubled up loop (see the photo), then put the loose ends thru the loop. Pull it tight, or wear it loose.

2. 

   Wear it like a tiered choker! Wrap the lariat around your neck (loose, or more fitted). Tuck the ends in, or make a loose tie and have them dangle a little bit.

3. 

   Need a bit more drama? Wrap it around your wrist a few times and voila! you have a lovely, unusual bracelet!

4. 
   Flapper fancy headband

   Be a flapper! Wrap the lariat around your head, or around a dramatic hair-do and create a high-energy, or very elegant look. Brides- this would look great on your wedding day!
